# CORTEX M3 FROM SCRATCH

This is my little 'Cortex M3 from scratch' project. No external libraries 
or IDEs are used. Everything is written from scratch. My development environment
consist of nothing more than:

	* GCC-arm-none (standard ARM cross compiler)
	* VIM editor
	* stm32flash

The board I use is a cheap Chinese STM32F103 ripoff. In theory, you should be able to 
port this code to any Cortex M0/M3/M4/M7 board.
